LV support for very high risk PCI of calficied lesions
Facilitators:
T. Engstrom, E. Le Royer
Summary
Discover the role of left ventricular (LV) support in performing very high-risk PCI on heavily calcified lesions. This session highlights techniques for navigating complex calcified coronary anatomies using Impella support, strategies for metal casing reshaping, and management of acute MI and cardiac arrest scenarios. Explore alternative vascular access options and decision-making processes for multivessel calcified PCI cases to optimize procedural safety and success.
